we aren’t nearly as good as we want to be. What positives do you see in today’s game? Want to get an appropriate tone for the blog before any infantile rantings of the imbecilic non-college/commnunity college-rejects chime in. Momma let’s them stay up late on Saturday nights …

It always makes me laugh when someone like you talks about other people who are stupid, but ends up using bad grammar or misspellings in their own posts. (are you using “let’s” as a contraction or a possessive?)

Five turnovers will get you beat every time, especially when two are returned for TD’s. Next game, it will be something else that breaks.

The Aggies actually had more yards from scrimmage. I think by later this season, they’ll start to resemble a major college team again. Add in some jucos next year, sophomores with a year’s experience and they will be 6-6 and back in the middle of the Big XII. We should see major results the year after that.

Question! If Fran was still coaching this team would ATM be this bad? Don’t get me wrong, I am not advocating ATM should have kept Fran (it was obviously time to make a change), but this is ridiculous. I know the whole argument, ATM has no talent. Well, they have not had any talent for several years now. We never got blown-out bye teams such as OK. State or Ark. St. and we were competitive in most of the big-time games.

It just seems the play-calling/scheme is horrible. Is J. Johnson overhyped? He looked bad previously and did not sound like he had a very good game yesterday.

If there is no progress towards the end of the year (at least playing hard and getting better) is there any chance the higher-ups would consider making a coaching change?

First of all, Johnson did not have a bad game. Wouldn’t say it was his best but the two interceptions for touchdowns were balls that could have been caught by the receivers.

As far as could this team be better under Franchione, the answer there is probably yes in terms of record. You have to realize he recruited to his system. Sherman runs an entirely different system on both sides of the football. The players are in place to run Fran’s scheme. My guess is the Aggies would have beat both Arkansas State and maybe Oklahoma State under Fran. The team still would have struggled.

Let’s not jump on board too quickly with any suggestion Sherman is not a good coach. He just seems bent on getting the players to play his brand of football instead of doing what these players can do well until his recruits are ready. The fallout will be a lot more outings like we saw Saturday night.

Casey – you are without a doubt the most obsessed closet Aggie fan I’ve ever come across. I find it highly intriguing you hang around the AGGIE blog and spend so much time composing your poorly written entries. Some therapist will make a ton of money while you try to figure out who you really are…and in the end, they’ll come to the conclusion that you’re just a total douchebag.

Not one but two interceptions could have been caught by Aggie receivers? Did these receivers tip both balls into the hands of the opposing backs? You saw the game and I didn’t, so that is a serious question. But…These same Aggies if still under Fran would have beaten OSU? Which means that they’d have been better than Missouri? That is quite a stretch.

Bigtexstar, actually both interceptions went off the hands of receivers into the hands of OSU defensive members. And yes, A&M would have likely beat OSU under Fran. That doesn’t mean that A&M would beat Missouri. Heck you could probably play that OSU-Missouri game five more times and the Tigers might win four. That’s how I understand the game when you have players on both sides.
